[rancid] Config generatinf failed_Help required

[Hussein, Md Sazzad]

Guys,

I am facing problem with switch config backup.

​When i just run the following command:
sudo su -c /usr/lib/rancid/bin/rancid-run -s /bin/bash -l rancid​

​I used to get the "*attached"* log:::::​

​*My config:::*​

​***@RR-DE-NMS-1:~/network$ more router.db
172.19.254.46:hp:up
172.19.254.53:hp:up
172.19.1.254:netscreen:up

Please note that there is no *"enable"* passowrd is assigned. I just put
the admin passowrd directly.

Anyone is there to support me!

​

[Scott Granados]

What version of RANCID are you using.

If 3.2 you need to use ; marks not : marks in the router.db

Else you get odd errors and the script won’t run or give the appropriate output.

Just a suggestion to check out.

Thanks
Scott

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the reply! Please have a look over the bellow output:

***@RR-DE-NMS-1:/var/log/rancid# more /etc/aliases
rancid-network; ***@de.rr-icecream.eu
rancid-admin-network; ***@de.rr-icecream.eu

***@RR-DE-NMS-1:/var/log/rancid# sudo /usr/bin/newaliases
postalias: warning: /etc/aliases, line 1: need name:value pair
postalias: warning: /etc/aliases, line 3: need name:value pair
***@RR-DE-NMS-1:/var/log/rancid#


How to check the rancid version? Is there any command for that?


regards
sazzad

Hi Scott,
postalias: warning: /etc/aliases, line 1: need name:value pair
postalias: warning: /etc/aliases, line 3: need name:value pair

You edited the wrong file, /etc/aliases is postfix's file and was
correct as you originally had it.

The file to edit is router.db. This is a rancid file and there is one
per rancid group.
rancid-2.3.x uses a ":" as the separator
rancid-3.x uses a ";" as the separator
This change was made for rancid-3 to accommodate IPv6 addresses

rancid -V

*Hi Alan,*

*# tail -f /var/log/rancid/network.20150605.065402*

*2. But the problem still exists in mail delivery. Still rancid is
deliverying to wrong mailing address:*

Jun 5 06:54:02 RR-DE-NMS-1 postfix/qmgr[9395]: 80391D21915: from=<
***@de.rr-icecream.eu>, size=729, nrcpt=1 (queue active)

mail for delivery)
Jun 5 06:54:02 RR-DE-NMS-1 postfix/qmgr[9395]: 80391D21915: removed



*3. Could you please let me know the path where rancid is backing up the
switch/router config file?*

*4. For checking rancid version please have a look:*
***@RR-DE-NMS-1:/var/log# rancid -v
rancid: command not found

***@RR-DE-NMS-1:/usr/bin$ rancid -V
rancid: command not found
***@RR-DE-NMS-1:/usr/bin$ rancid -v
rancid: command not found




*Expecting your kind help again!*

This is a problem with your mailer setup.
You need to check that but it's out of the scope of this list

switch/router config file?

They could be anywhere, they are just files and there nothing about
files that declares where they must go.

How did you install rancid? From sources? From a package manager? Which
distro?

Then you don't have a rancid command, meaning you are probably n v3.0.
Run any of the other rancid commands with a -V option,
or look inside one of them (they are text scripts and the version number
is stated at the top)
or ask your package manager what version is installed

*Hallo Alan,*

2. The thing is that i have installed some other services like nagios,
cacti, tacas+. The same server si sending mail alert to correct
destination. But why rancid is picking up ****@mydomain* address? There
something should be in rancid config file. I have looked for but failed.


3. I am just followed bellow URL to set up rancid:
https://www.edge-cloud.net/2013/05/rancidtrac-on-ubuntu-12-04-lts/
